10/2/2018 Topic: Monster DYP Jesse Rhode Administrator	2 points for a win. 1 point for a draw. 0 points for a loss. We run it pretty much as is from Kickertool. As far as how it determines the ratings for the players, we have been using the Sonneborn-Berger scoring system: "The Sonneborn–Berger score is a scoring system often used to break ties in chess tournaments. It is named after Hermann Neustadtl, who proposed it in a letter published in Chess Monthly in 1882." -Wikipedia. Basically an ELO type system and if you really want to know more about it, that is the name/system to look into.

3/2/2019 Topic: Here we go Jesse Rhode Administrator	I try very hard to make everyone happy, yet that is impossible. Meaning, I weigh the collective sentiments and make a decision, to the best of my ability, to promote the foos community. Obviously, this means that some people will be pissed off, while others will be pleased. These things are not personal. So, please, do not make it personal with me...if possible. I understand it will go there, from time to time, but I typically get over that shit fairly rapidly. However, what I do not understand, is when someone becomes unhappy yet refuses to hear the counter argument. Most of us are grown ass adults, myself aside, thus you should be more open to things changing from time to time. It should not upset people so much if our pattern is disturbed. Shit, even having a pattern in foos seems a bit wrong, truth be told. Yet, I am typically the one that advocates for normality. So, if I change something, it is based upon a logical sentiment...even if the timing sucks ass. I do not sit at home dreaming up ways to fuck with everyone (well, not in a nefarious manner at least!). And, I certainly NEVER sit anywhere thinking of ways to piss YOU off as an individual! This is a community, after all. I have been heavily involved with foos for 30 years now...trust me, it is not as easy as some seem to believe. I apologize for upsetting people, yet I am not sorry. Figure it out! (that is a Letterkenny reference...not an asshole reference!)
